Hyperterminal

I've connected to my Cisco 837 using hyperterminal on XP.
However, when I curser up, rather than getting the last command I get ^@

I've never seen this on W2K, Am I missing a setting or could this be an XP bug?

Regards
Michael

Everyone just reccommends another bloody programme, is there actually an
answer!!!


ARGHH

 

Perhaps there's a reason why?

File, properties, settings, Use terminal keys.

nope

 

OK, how about the wrong terminal type? Did you try VT100?

Trust me..you really really really don't want to use HyperTerm.

What is wrong with HyperTerm?

Kev.

 

It emulates VT100 poorly. Yes, even today, we have to talk about VT100
emulation. For example, going into Paradyne's with HyperTerm can be a
painful experience. It doesn't dynamically change the legth and width
like Tera Term does for example. It doesn't support X like cut and
paste operations. The logging is poor. It lacks scripting ability. I
can go on and on.

Hi,

I do use Teraterm but just tried Hyper terminal connected on Com2 to my 803.
Using the emulation as autodetect and the Function, arrow and ctrl keys act
as Terminal keys. This actually works ok for me. My console speed is set to
57600 too. Much quicker.

I agree with all the adverse comments about Hyperterm. Teraterm is a
very good alternative, although I use Ruurd Beerstra's IVT now
(http://home.wxs.nl/~ruurdb/home.html). I has multisession capability,
scripting and all sorts of other functions.

Hmm, I'll download it and see. I'm always looking for good telnet
programs. PuTTY isn't bad either (one small executable)

I don't at present do scripting and find putty pretty well
perfection itself.

As Hansang says, it is just a small exe, NO installation needed,
or indeed possible, unlimited (AFIK) viewable window size, unlimited
(AFIK) scrollback, really neat clickless cut and one click paste
(although I must confess to having pasted inappropriately from
time to time).

AFIK it doesn't do serial comms though but does ssh.

 

Putty's lack of serial support is an issue, but that's where Tera Term
comes in. The other thing I like better in TeraTerm is its handling of
logs. It's a bit awkward to start it in putty during mid session.
Address book is a bit week but then so is Tera Terms address book. I
did find a company that modified Tera Term to remember the sites you've
been to, but I can't seem to turn off the reverse lookups.

ZOC and IVT do all of the above better.
